"content": "A PWD is not even taken in because they have a wheelchair and they want to access the bus, but the driver feels they are wasting his time. So, he will leave them on their wheelchairs and proceed because he wants to make money. Even as we discuss how we regulate fares, we need to capacity build the touts, conductors and drivers on how they need to handle Kenyans when it comes to accessibility to the transport system. The BRT system is coming to this country. How is the BRT concerned about parking and how Kenyans are going to be entering into the buses? The PWDs want to access the city. They want come to town, look at the city, just roam around and go back home. Those are the concerns that this Government has to put in place to ensure that SACCO are not exploiting our people. We are realising that matatu operators in Kenya for a while are taking advantage of the non-existent laws to exploit our people. If I travel from Nairobi to Migori or Isebania, where I come from, it must be known that transport from Nairobi by bus to Isebania border is Kshs1,000 or Kshs500 to Narok."
